1-2 month-old news.I have recently read something about a botox shortage (I think, IIRC) due to large production batch having been CONtaminated somehow.

Between botox and the off-label weight loss use of GLP drugs like Ozempic for weight loss, Hollywood must be stressing badly from these shortages. At least there will always be ample supply of nitwit Paltrow's goofy Goop.

Oh well, I suspect the Glitterati can gett their CONcierge docs to prescribe them a higher dose of their current benzodiepine du jour to help them cope.

ROBERT DOWNEY JR will Shirley be back on the meth (again, yett again) tho.

OTOH, these could wind up being another Fen-Phen when all the large-scale long-term usage adverse event stats are analyzed.

Or another

amphetamines (1960s)

good, ole 2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP) (1930s)

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27916644/

Or diet equivalents of the non-diet drugs:

diethylstilbestrol (DES) - marketed for 37 years

thalidomide.

We ought tread carefully with new classes of drugs, most axespeshully for off-label uses...
